Dear friends of NCSE,
Idaho's governor vetoes the Bible-as-reference bill. Sad news of the
death of Harold Morowitz. A reminder that seats are still available on
NCSE's next excursion to the Grand Canyon. And a denunciation of
Alabama's evolution disclaimer.

Dear friends of NCSE,
Disappointing news from Alabama. Everything you ever wanted to know
about the NCSE/Penn State climate change education survey. Plus good
news from the state legislatures of Louisiana, West Virginia, and
Florida.

Dear friends of NCSE,
A new issue of Reports of the NCSE in its new format is now available
on-line. Idaho's Bible-as-science-reference bill may become not as
problematic. West Virginia's science standards are under attack by the
legislature, in part owing to their treatment of climate change. And
two -- or is it three? -- antiscience bills are dead in Oklahoma.

Dear friends of NCSE,
The antiscience bill in Mississippi and the anti-NGSS bill in Iowa are
now both out of commission. Plus public opinion about climate change
in Alaska and a reminder about NCSE's 2016 excursion to the Grand
Canyon.

Dear friends of NCSE,
Coverage of "Climate Confusion Among U.S. Teachers." A bill in Idaho
that would permit the use of the Bible in studying science. And
progress for Arizona's Darwin Day bill, the death of Antonin Scalia,
and a Facebook milestone for NCSE.

Antievolutionists Say the Darndest Things

Antievolutionists often express outrage over alleged incivility from those who oppose their efforts to evade the establishment clause of the First Amendment. But they have no difficulty in dishing out the abuse themselves. Here is a sample from the Invidious Comparisons thread that documents egregious behavior on the part of the religious antievolution advocates.

IDC advocate Stephen C. Meyer:

Another interesting aspect of the press conference was a statement by Ken Miller, featured on the evening news, to the effect that ID advocates are trying to present their views to the public "without the approval of science." Afterwards, in private, Steve Meyer kept repeating Miller's pompous declaration with a heavy German accent, sounding for all the world like Heinrich Himmler, Hitler's propaganda chief.
